13 years later I am watching this video and it's still extremely clear and useful. Thank you! This video has already raised several generations of students :)
I must confess that I know some statistics; I graduated from college with a honors degree in statistics. These videos are helping me deepen my knowledge of statistics--40 years after graduation. Thanks, Sal!
your selflessness is amazing, you are helping hundreds of thousands of people, thanks to u i think i have a fair chance of meeting my offer from oxford, THANK YOU
I have a test on this in about 3 hours and I was still clueless about the topic. Your video just completely made everything click in my head. I love you :')
this is so simple!. I wonder why teachers in general have such a hard time explainig something that is this basic. My teacher explained it as something really abstract.
Why doesn't he just use the binomial probability formula. Eg. p(x=2) 6C2(0.7)^2 x (1-0.7)^(6-2) Its a little confusing when he mix permutation with this. What is the difference between the two?
@1234LMAO12345 I did that A level short course thing when i was in year 11(got my a* in gcse etc),take my word, don't let it stress you out and interfere with any of your other GCSEs. I'm now in college doing further maths and the stuff you will be doing now in school (such as binomial distribution) is taught much better and is very easy when you're in college. They really shouldn't do the A level thing they put you through while you're still in school cos it just stresses you out like it did me
for the equation at the probability of making 3 shots in p(x=3) at 10:37, shouldnt that be 0.3^3 since u are making 3 shots? not 0.3^2? I may be missing something, but am i right or wrong? =S
Hey Guys, help me out here! If you ask me the probability of making one shot, for me I would say p=30%. While saying this, I am actually providing an estimate that I'll be able to make 3 out of 10 shots for sure (means, P(X=3) given n=10 is 100%) But then using same numbers n=10 and p=3 I calculate the binomial probability of making 3 shots out of 10 and it is 26.68%!

You were born to teach. You just explain everything as if you were explaining it to children, you make it easy to understand, thanks so much!

i really like the black background it's so much easier on my eyes. thank you khan!
10:58 it should be .3³
thank you soo much, i sincerely dont think id have my degree without you, my teachers arent as clear as you, thank you
p x=3 shouldnt it be 0.7 cubed times 0.3 cubed (not squared)?
apart from that great video cheers
Nick Parsonage yes it was a mistake
hey, I was also thinking the same. It's a great video, though. :)
Exponents always add up to 6
@@jalepezo thank you for that tip!
Your ability to decompose a these ideas into digestible bits are impeccable!
your selflessness is amazing, you are helping hundreds of thousands of people, thanks to u i think i have a fair chance of meeting my offer from oxford, THANK YOU
hi Sal! great as always!
shouldn't it be: P (X=3) = 0.7^3*0.3^3 rather than 0.7^3*0.3^2?
V
I cannot overstate my love for these videos.... SO many times you have shed light on the foggiest parts of my learning :)
I have a test on this in about 3 hours and I was still clueless about the topic. Your video just completely made everything click in my head. I love you :')
10:35 ERROR: those should be (.3)^3, not (.3)^2
10:36 You made 0.3^2 instead of 0.3^3, but overall, EXCELLENT!!
Needed to see this 🤣
This guy will one day win the Nobel peace prize - for changing millions of fates for the better!
I have a test in binomial tomorrow and you just made everything easier.. Thanks!!
"Hopefully you know... wait a minute, let me just do it"!!!! Hilarious!!!
We love you Sal!!!
dr. khan, you are the bomb.
I know this is probably a stupid question.... 9:15 did you divide 6 by 2?
8:20 "gods of probability" ). I like your sense of humor
الله يفتح عليك دنيا واخره ....thanks for helping us to understand these lesson.
If what you just taught me manages to stick in my head. I love you.
this is so simple!. I wonder why teachers in general have such a hard time explainig something that is this basic. My teacher explained it as something really abstract.
Sal, I think you should start these courses of yours at coursera.
Why doesn't he just use the binomial probability formula.
Eg.
p(x=2)
6C2(0.7)^2 x (1-0.7)^(6-2)
Its a little confusing when he mix permutation with this. What is the difference between the two?
Fareeed92 idk maybe he wants to show a different way
I'm passing university stats because of these videos. Much thanks.
The Gods of Probability is picking those combinations!

Thanks Khan, great educational video.
thank you so much~~ your contribution to education is invaluable
Another great video! Great work!
Thanks alot you really are helping me out with this
what if the order does matter? at 09:30 . what would change in the formula?
the order matters: picking up m from n = n!/(n-m)!, while the order doesn't matter: n!/m!(n-m)!
'whats the probability that you make ONE shoot' != 'and i choose ONE'
I loved this video. :) Thanks, buddy.
Is that a mistake in the green writing at point 10:37? Should that be a 3 instead of a 2?
10:33 exponent on .3 should be 3 not 2 otherwise great video, it helped me a lot.
same here man! what did you apply for? :)
at P (X=3) the end should read 0,3^3 instead of 0.3^2, other than that its great :)
He's not just a demigod he's a GANGSTA. did you hear him reference "bucket"? Hahahaha
'let's find a random variable X. We always do.' LMAO
for the equation at the probability of making 3 shots in p(x=3) at 10:37, shouldnt that be 0.3^3 since u are making 3 shots? not 0.3^2?
I may be missing something, but am i right or wrong? =S
can he replace my lecturer :)
Better to use the term combination
so how do i work out if p(X>1) vise versa. also if it is egual or more than or egual and less than. what do i do then?? please help
on 8:21 i am not picking it ,gods of probability will pick it
mistake at 10:40
Thanks to the god of probability
So much more respect when he said bucket.
at 11:45 i literally said to my computer screen "yes, this make so much sense!"
there is an error when X=3
in the explanation
@LateAgainGerald he made a mistake.
there are 6 shots (no quiting here)
not just that but the demigod of EVERY FUCKING THING...
check out his calculus videos and you'll agree.
3:19 GET TO THE FACTOR!
@Maloparic hell yeah thats the only way i can learn
Sal makes math easy...
Our professor makes it a nightmare.
9-yr-ago comment is still not old.
There's just always got to be a critic.
thanks I was freaking out
what is Khan Academy?
are you a teacher
about a 90% porb
p=90%
Hey Guys, help me out here! If you ask me the probability of making one shot, for me I would say p=30%.
While saying this, I am actually providing an estimate that I'll be able to make 3 out of 10 shots for sure (means, P(X=3) given n=10 is 100%)
But then using same numbers n=10 and p=3 I calculate the binomial probability of making 3 shots out of 10 and it is 26.68%!
Shrey Shah geting 30% of your shots is not 30% likely
Jake, I am basically confused between the meaning of p and binomial Probability P.
i wanna meet this guy irl
at P(X=3) why is it not 6C3*(0.7)^3*(0.3)^3
Error at 10:37.....should be 0.3 cubed
thx so much!
When X= 3, should be 0.3 ^ 3 but by mistake he has written 0.3 ^ 2
Heh Sal just proved he is human
he made a mistake.
On P(X=3)
anyway great videos... lets hope i can pass the test which is tomorrow...
thank you based god
i like the most
good
I know you were the bad guy... buy because of your super-helpful videos I was rooting for you in star trek.
@1234LMAO12345 Who is that cruel to put you through this at 15?
Better take notes!!
@1234LMAO12345
I thought A Level was for 18 yrs olds.
It is, he made a mistake
7:57
i meant equal -.-
lol wtf
